    Reprogramming ABS Module - A4 Avant B9

    I drove my car with the yellow warning "Drive, but talk to the garage". Then it went red and failed - no middle ground!!! I talked to Audi, and got nowhere! If they admitted liability they would have to pay all of us or do a recall. I also tried the DVSA. They said: Maybe all of us should join...

    Reprogramming ABS Module - A4 Avant B9

    I had my unit repaired by ECU Testing. All good. No warning messages anymore. However, I would like to know what you mean by "Creaking". Is it an audible noise? I can feel a slight shudder when I press the brake pedal. Is that what you mean? Charlie

    Reprogramming ABS Module - A4 Avant B9

    So perhaps the more of us who report it to the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) , the better.

    Reprogramming ABS Module - A4 Avant B9

    I have the same problem. £2,000+vat for the new unit and £500+vat for removal/replacement. Audi said "Tough" even though the original (non-amber) message said "Brake servo: restricted. You can continue driving. Please contact workshop", then went to a red STOP warning with no further notice. I...

    Parking button reminder..

    Thanks. Never knew that. Could you point me at a page on the audi site that describes that behaviour. I did a search and couldn't find that.

    Parking button reminder..

    I have never worked out the logic of the handbreak. Sometimes I press the stop button when the engine is on and in gear, and it goes to P and the handbreak goes on. Sometimes it only goes to P but the handbreak doesn't go on. Luckily, I live on the flat.

    Post your B9 eBay, Classified and For Sale links in here. Do not create a thread

    I have an unused dog guard net for sale for an A4 B9. Probably easier to pick up than post. I live in SW London. Offers?

    Metalic clicking noise from front suspension

    The noise I have is not a clicking but a whine from the front left wheel when going above 50mph. It happens when going straight and stops when turning. Would you all agree it is the CV joint? Charlie

    B9 Hardwire Dash Cam

    There are two fuse panels on the passenger side. You need to find an always on fuse on the lower panel. Feeding the wire up to the mirror is not hard. Just push the wire under the trim around the windscreen. Don't remove any trim.

    Dash Cam Wire Routing

    Thank you! Did you have a wire routing guide that helped with removing the A Frame cover and threading the wire through to the fuse location? I can't find anything on YouTube or the web. Charlie

    Dash Cam Wire Routing

    I'm trying to piggyback on a fuse for my dashcam but none of the passenger side fuses seem to be "switched live". I have a UK right hand drive A4 B9 avant S-line Quattro. Has anyone successfully piggybacked and if so, which exact fuse did you use? Thanks in advance. Charlie

    Unlock with phone

    How do you unlock it with the app? Do you need a particular option? How did you set it up? I've tried to do this but failed. Charles

    no internet connection using Android Auto via USB

    I have a 2017 and use Android Auto successfully. I haven't bought any sim contract type thing from Audi. I didn't do anything special like use rSAP or the phone hotspot. I think Android Auto just uses the phone internet connection. Ie the car is just the speaker and the screen - nothing...

    Boot doesn't always open cleanly

    On my Avant, if I press the button on my key to open the boot (for 2 seconds), the boot opens an inch then stops. I have to press the button for another two seconds to actually open the boot. Does anyone know how to open the boot first time? Charles

    Parking Brake and Auto Park logic

    When turning off the car I usually just press the Stop button. Sometimes, that puts the car in Park with the Parking Brake on. Sometime it just puts the car in Park. Sometimes it does neither. I would prefer the car to go into Park with the Parking Brake on. Does anyone know the logic the car...

    Android Auto and Pixel 3

    Blimey, phones and cars don't mix on many levels. I've just got a Pixel 3 and am trying to use it in my A4 B9. I have used Android Auto with a wire and unsuccessfully with Bluetooth (except for making phone calls via the car's own interface). Now I am completely stuck. I plug in the phone and...

    Connect Key

    I'm still none the wiser! Even though i have the "Audi connect key' option in the myAudi app on Android Pixel, i can't get the app past the "Allow access" page. How can i tell if i actually have that option on my car? My dealer suggested it was not working because i didn't have a paid up sim...
